As for the rear spark plugs if you remove the intercooler's you will gain access to the rear plugs. Takes minutes to remove.
Wish I’d thought of that! As always this community teaches me something each day. Greatly appreciate it! Again, I wish I had all those performance parts ready to go, once everything is exposed it looks like it’s cherry picking for the whatever upgrades you want to do.

After doing it one time it won’t seem so intimidating. I could probably have everything apart in half the time next go around. Overall, the packaging is very smart, and considering what all they have crammed under there, the general access and ease of disassembly really is impressive.
Check out this vid from Fellow T owner Tommy L Garage. Some good tips

It was definitely a time consuming endeavor but not too bad with patience and the right tools. Not sure if our Ts are the same as all other base but I found a few differences in the multiple videos I watched before completing the task like our oil filler is connected to the spoiler. By far the most difficult part was getting the two rear most spark plugs on each side out, just not a lot of room in there.
skill level 5 out of 10

Here’s some pics:
Tools Get these…they are worth it on Amazon! Remember that you need 12 point 14mm spark plug sockets with swivel head. Porsche switched to those a while ago away from the 6 point. I found this out the hard way on my wife’s 718. Spoiler up ready to begin Taped tail lights Oil filler attached to spoiler Bumper off New BMC filter in…it’s really hard not to want to get a ton of performance parts at this point and just install everything! Tial tubes, intercoolers etc but I kept going. Right rear spark plug Rear Left side spark plug Six old plugs next to last new one to go in
Took the T to NJMP this weekend for a HPDE, and managed to snag this shot after a heavy downpour on Saturday.
Car was a lot of fun and I was pleasantly surprised by the P-Zero Pirellis… for a few sessions.
Just back from taking my T to a local independent Porsche specialist for its 6 year service, plus spark plugs. Needed three new ignition coil packs and 6 bolts. A common issue on 991.2s apparently.
